About the Book

Please note that the content of this book primarily consists of articles available from Wikipedia or other free sources online. Pages: 27. Chapters: Boeing 707, Douglas DC-8, Boeing 367-80, Douglas DC-7, Convair 880, Lockheed L-1649 Starliner, Martin 2-0-2, Martin 4-0-4.

The company's civil aviation department lagged far behind Douglas and other competitors, the only noteworthy airliners being the Boeing 314 Clipper and 307 Stratoliner. During 1949-1950, Boeing embarked on serious studies for a new jet transports, realizing that any design must have the potential to fulfill both the military and civil markets. At the time, aerial refueling was increasingly becoming a standard operational technique, with over 800 KC-97 Stratotankers being on order. With the advent of the jet age, a new tanker was required to meets the USAF's fleet of jet-powered bombers; this wa...
